I feel like this question has to have been asked somewhere but my forum search didn't find anything.
I want to use the drag and drop question type using an image (map) and images to drag (individual countries from the map). I have 'extracted' the individual countries using Gimp, which was a rather tedious process. When the images are saved as gif images the outlined image can be preserved but when saved as a jpeg image the image is cropped into a square, which for drag an drop results in an awkward situation of having to drag a square, larger than the actual target, onto a map...thereby covering some of the adjacent countries.
Is there anyway to 'fix' this problem that anyone is aware of.
For reference, I will try to attach some screenshots here of my problem.
The following is when a jpeg is used.
This is with a gif that has apparently been converted, within Moodle, to jpeg...?
Maybe I need to use a different image format to get transparency outside of the 'visible' image?
Thanks, in advance, for any help or advice provided.
